Our guild bank just got hacked like 30 minutes ago, fyi Crushridge Determination guild. Was also disbanded. Anways i was going to suggest something that would maybe help against hackers and other guild thefts. Is a Guild bank lock like a code only officers or guild masters would know. It would say protect from a potential hacker or something? So that way you guys wouldn't have to restore guild bank items. So when they go to bed they can put the time lockout period that the guild bank cant be accessed or until someone puts in a code and locks it again. Just a cool idea we thought of maybe that could help.

Q u o t e:
First of all i think that is a good idea, second of all my account got hacked even with an "Authenticator" on it. Authenticators are not fool proof and anyone with enough knowledge and know how will get in with determination. like they did mine. I got hack too, I know this because my girl was sitting next to me saying my characters were logging in one by one and was tell me what was going on while i was RESTARTING MY COMPUTER. Secondly I know this for a fact because button 1 on my pali was a hawkstrider when I finally got back on and it was never a hawkstrider placed in that button. Lastly that is a great idea for blizzard to look into because if i had not been told when i was told, and acted quickly to change my password asap it could''ve gotten alot worse. Authenticators are nice but not impregnable. they are not invincible and will be cracked one day by someone. I was not going to any spoof websites either I was just simply logging in to play and check my auctions and do dailies 3 days ago. I opened the program, shortly after got booted couldn't log in because it paused after logging into server and then i restarted and was told by my future fiance.

I also use addons, but only from the curse client itself never from any websites.


When was this, Sïntox?

I've gone back two days and your access is rock solid, I'm not seeing any signs of entry by any other location.

You do have a compromise investigation in queue, but there is only one way AROUND an authenticator and you wouldn't be logging into game if it were present, it would be giving you false error messages and sending your information real-time to the compromiser. No one gets through and authenticator, just in rare cases, around one through very specific malware on your machine.
